* About

These tools have become very popular in the future...


** Comlinks

A mobile device used for computing and as a telephone. These devices
distinguish themselves from and replaced "smart phone" technology in
the mid 2020s thanks to their ability to completely replace the laptop
and desktop PC. Tough some folks still have docking stations that look
like a laptop, most folks simply use AR to interact with their comlink
without the need for an clunky display monitor.


** Holographic Emitters

Typically used for adding a window with a view to a basement wall or a
water fountain to an office lobby. The higher the rating the greater
the purchase price. Most commercial models have restrictions mainly
for proprietary or governmental regulations, usually against
impersonating people, including the owner of the product.


** Medkits

Paramedics in the urban sprawl and backpackers of the PTC love
medkits. These lunchbox-sized packs contain a semi-automated system
for repairing physical damage and reducing pain. Significantly more
expensive models come coupled with a drone for completely automatic
use.


** Subvocals

Subvocal-recorders and microphones, or SVRs, a widely used device for
conducting secret or private conversations in public, often in the
form of a discreet earpiece.


** Virtual Reality

Usually simply referred to as VR, this family of includes several
related, but different technologies. VR gets its name from the
classic, stereoscopic virtual reality headsets. Another branch of this
family, augmented reality or AR, works by projecting or overlaying
graphics on a personal display, often holographic, but AR usually does
not refer to holographic emitters. The last most common family of VR,
immersed reality, sometimes known as IR, actually interacts with the
nervous system itself.
